Spring Fishing

Well Spring is here and it is time to get your gear in shape for the upcoming summer tuna bite. Get that new line on the reels and tune up the reels and check those guides on the rods. Go through the tackle box and check the hooks and jigs. Here's a few tips to use this season.
1. Put some Baking Powder in the tackle trays with the hooks. It will keep them from rusting.
2. Go to the pet store and get some air hose for the fish tanks. Cut it in 1/2 in. segments and use them as hook protectors for the jigs.
3. Take a piece of 1/2 in. wooded dwole and get 2 tennis balls. cut the tennis balls with an X on opposite sides and use it as a line spool holder.
4. If you need to remove line from your reels, that a water bottle and put a bolt thru the cap, with teh bolt extending out. But the cap back on the bottle and attach it to a drill. Now tie the line to the bottle and use it to wind the line on to the bottle.
5. to make sure your guides are smooth and have no nicks, use a panty hose and run it thru the inside of the guides. If they snag you have nicks that could cut or wear down your line. (Replace the guides)

I will post photos of these tips later this week.
